I am not having conversations that the government would be all that excited to hear about in the first place. They are usually about how uncomfortably pregnant I am or what my son is doing. So pretty much wouldn't phase me in the least bit. I feel like if we have to sacrifice a little bit of freedom to get more security, then so be it.

i think it's pretty disgusting that they were listening in on soldiers and red cross workers and then sharing the tapes with one another.

heatherama, as a soldier's wife, when they sign up for the military, they sign away many of their rights to privacy. Its just a fact of life. My husband's life is not his life to control anymore. He is a soldier first, does as the Army says, then if its ok with them, he gets to say/do what he wants. Heck, he can't even leave the state without prior consent. And who is "sharing tapes with one another"?

OMG, these answers! I'm horrified, appalled, upset, frightened and thoroughly disgusted that the constitution is being subverted this way and even more so, oh, my, god that anyone could have no problem with it.

I have no reason to be concerned about my conversations- so I suppose if they want to hear what my sister did to my other sister, or which child is most annoying today, or what recipe for fried chicken I like best, they can go ahead and listen away.
